Perhaps they schedule the backups from the client

q fi SERVER_ORA
q occ SERVER_ORA

"q vol stg=<stg_pool>" doesn't show any volumes anymore?

You could define a clientaction. It will create an additional backup so perhaps thats not what you want

I never worked with proxynode, but the following should work fine from server 2
# dsmc -virtualnodename=<SERVER1>

like:?
dsmc sel /etc/passwd | tee /tmp/dsmc.out

That works for me. I get the summary report in the end and /tmp/dsmc.out is filled with the same info as appeared on my screen.

Honestly? I don't have mt devices on AIX, only rmt devices.
Perhaps if you install something else then Atape that you get mt devices, but it's certainly not standard.
With Atape on AIX the devices...

it happens when backfm is started from a different directory as where backint is located.
So first cd to the directory and then execute backfm

reclaim stg is the newer command.
It has extra functionality in that you can specify the duration of the reclaim process.

Back in the days, I used to have a second admin schedule that set the...

you must have done something wrong. I just did the same actions i think:

1. REGISTER NODE INCLMC ?***? dom=THEAIX01D userid=none
2. DEFINE MGMTCLASS THEAIX01D STANDARD TEST
3. DEFINE COPYGROUP...

LANFree.

The idea with server free data movement was to have a data mover device in your SAN (eg ibm San DataGateway) that would copy the data directly from a disk device to a tape device on the...

chdev -l <old_name> -a new_name=<new_name>

eg renaming rmt15 to rmt999

You will/might have to run cfgmgr on the system or device afterwards to give it the...

The manual explicitly states backup processing, so I assume so.
A small test on a windows system seems to confirm it.

exclude.dir appears to be for backups not archives.

"exclude.dir Locates matching directory names. If a matching directory is found, that directory, its files, and all its subdirectories and...

dsmc q sched -virtualnodename=XXX
or use the dsm.sys Server entry
dsmc q sched -server=SERVER_ENTRY_IN_DSM.SYS

The second option can use passwords that are saved/encrypted on the client.

Perhaps set the max mount points to 0 for the client.

"upd no XXX maxmp=0".
I can still make a backup to the diskpool when trying thi.

why don't you then use the -console flag and use the asci interface

the installer gave a clue:
"The installer cannot run in this UI mode. To specify the interface mode, use the -i command-line option, followed by the UI mode identifier. The valid UI modes...

You mean if you can restore over the LAN if you backupped over SAN?
Yes certainly possible. Either by stopping/killing the storage agent or by changing the enablelanfree flag in the dsm.opt/sys file

TDP should not be a part of the cluster.
Install it on rootvg on both clusternodes. Have the tdpo.opt files and others on a shared disk or make sure to keep the option files synched between the 2...

on the command line: q no <specific_node> f=d

mksysb's in combination with an AIX NIM server will get the rootvg back.

If you also want a mechanism to have the other volumegroup/logical volume definitions back you could make empty savevg's of...

1. create /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin64/dsm.opt with the following entry
SErvername <TSM-SERVERNAME>

2. create /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin64/dsm.sys with a contents similar like...

On AIX TSM packages are normally in /usr/tivoli/tsm.
Not sure for TIP, never worked with it/

There is no tivoli guide for recovering normal TSM data tapes without a TSM database.
It is not an officially supported method.

With "dd" or some other block reader you could try to recover data....

You can indeed. Goodluck with it, without the DB tape.

TDP for Oracle is a licensed product.
Making an Oracle backup to disk and let the simple ba client send the data to TSM saves some money.

I prefer the TDP since then the logs are immediately...

check the contents of the init<SID>.utl file in /oracle/<SID>/<ora_version>/dbs
also check the server entry mentioned in the utl file in /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64/dsm.sys

I doubt that last option is possible.
How would the TSM server be able to mount a tape in a drive if it does not have a path to the drive?

I think the TSM server will always be able to use the...

check what your primary pool is by looking at the copygroup settings

that test is not good enough I think
Normally /var/adm/wtmp is a file on AIX and not a directory

I just restored a Linux backup to an AIX system. That worked fine.

The dsmcad scheduler uses the dsm.sys and dsm.opt files in /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin64
DSM_CONFIG and DSM_DIR can be set to use a different location

No lanfree agent running that still refers to the DR server? Doesn't look like it seeing the dsm.sys file
You are sure that 172.16.46.188 is the ip-address is the correct for TSM server PRD?

"delete vol XX discarddata=yes" will also delete the data on the copy volumes.

I would give multiplexing a try. Let that storage system read from as many disks as possible so it can keep up with the fast write speed of the drives
Values like 4 or 8 should challenge the storage...

typo in dsm.sys?
servername TSMDBMGR_MGR18000 (servername TSMDBMGR_MGR1800)

I would create a second TSM node for the monthly backup. (NODE_monthly or so).
So the client will call the option files for the second nodename during the monthly backups. Make sure the logs are not...

The TDP for oracle will only backup the actual data in the database, not the database file itself that exists on Unix.

dsmc q backup /data/backups/
notice the / on the end

The error refers to a missing/unreadable dsm.sys/opt file in the api/bin(64) directory
/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin or /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64

Check if the dsm.opt and dsm.sys files...

Try it and you know it. The only possible part to restart is prole, but I doubt you need to restart this part since backint will connect to it locally.

It is easily tested with "backint -p...

Administration assistent is not related.
Is prole running on the system?

if you could get the the commands in flat file on the TSM server host, you could run
macro /local_path/file

also no hmc available?

have a look at the cu command, something like:
cu -m /dev/ttyx
